Inverter On Rize

[mgb]

I just purchased a Thor Rize M18. Does anybody know how to turn on the inverter and what receptacles it services.

Welcome to the forum.

Go to the owners resource page on Thor’s website and download the documentation and diagrams.

I have put my information into the Thor website five times and there is nothing to click on to submit the information. It says to sign up and I click sign up and put in all my information including the Vin number and there’s nothing at the bottom to click on to Submit it. II am getting so frustrated with this RV I’m ready to take it back to them and just let them have it.

Thank you. I’m done. I’m just gonna go see the dealer tomorrow.

Sounds like you got a plan to go see dealer. I would also call Thor Customer Service tomorrow and get that Online thing taken care of. You gonna need that in the future.

Now just for kicks if you haven't completely thrown in the towel...

What have you seen to make you think you have a Inverter? Can you take pictures of that, or take pictures of anything in the coach that looks like what you call a Control Panel. Someone may point it out for you.

It is likely on some wall, or inside some cabinet with other control switches.

You might also look for the inverter itself. Find an extra heavy duty red cable coming off the house batteries to see where it might go, it may be in a lower bay compartment? If you find it you can turn it on/off on the inverter and you can see if it has a wired remote coming out of it that will go someplace in the coach.

If you do find it it's output rating will give you clues to what is powered by it. I am gonna say, not much. But for sure all TVs and Entertainment systems, and a few receptacles.

Do you have a Residential fridge? If so; it may be on Inverter and sometimes inverter switch can be close to the fridge. You also would like likely have at least a 2,000 watt inverter.

So did the Dealer give you a PDI where they explained the operation of all the systems? How about a large plastic envelope with all the operators manuals/warranty information for all the discrete systems in the RV?


Finally: Do you see the account CREATE button to the right of the account information?

Did you notice two Group 31 AGM House batteries

This confirms he has Inverter and it likely does cover the 12v Fridge as it is Electric but on Inverter circuit.

He still needs to find the switch though. I am sure there is one and I don't think it is hidden, but maybe not in plain site? Given he has a Residential like Fridge and 1000W, his Inverter is likely on his TVs and maybe one other outlet.

If you didn't get a PDI or can't remember you can always employ Google. Your inverter control is right by the side door:


There are also quite a few videos on YouTube covering the features of the Rize and Scope vans.

Look in the cabinet over the stove to the left of the battery moniter
